A Weekend Visitor
Flat Stanley arrived from New York state yesterday to spend the weekend with us.
He was just a bit hungry after his trip, and wanted a snack. I had healthy options, but he chose a fudgsicle.
(I had almost forgotten it's a white car.)
(I hope he's right.)
I invited him to go to work with me this afternoon, to visit some of the residents at the nursing home, but he said he's pretty tired from such a busy morning and would like to take a nap. Maybe he'll join me tomorrow.
At any rate, he'll be on his way to Oklahoma on Monday. This will be a quick visit, but Flat Stanley's a helpful guy to have around, even for a weekend.

Hi,
where in NY did FLAT STANLEY come from??? My son did a project with Flat Stanley when he was in First or second grade, and my younger son, we think did it isn Kindergarden. The first son sent it to VA to spend time with Great grandma, and the second son sent it to OH to spend time with an uncle of my husband. He took (the uncle) tons of pics like yours with FLat Stanley, it was hysterical and fun! Hope you have a great MOTHER's Day!

Neat job.
And did you say Nursing Home? My First Wife spent several years working in an Assisted Living Center. I compile monthly newsletters and calendars for the same place.
I hope you had a Happy Mother's Day.

I'm glad flat had a safe trip. It looks like you're having a good time. He does have an appetite. Buy extra food.

By the way, I've finally updated mine, after a loooooong while.
And this "Flat stanley" idea is so cool and funny!
